Cumberland Park is mainly a residential suburb, with a number of shops and businesses along Goodwood Road. These include a
Big W with an adjoining
Woolworths supermarket on the Cross Road corner. The shopping centre, which opened in the 1970s, was redeveloped in 2013. A notable tenant in the corner of that car park, diagonally opposite
McDonald's, was, for many years, The Welsh Cafe, possibly Australia's only
Welsh eating place. It closed in early 2013. Cumberland Park Post Office opened on 1 November 1993, replacing the
Clarence Park Post Office. It closed in 2011. ==Schools==
